BayCoast Bank opens Dartmouth Branch

BayCoast Bank recently opened a Branch at 299 State Rd., across from the Dartmouth Mall. To celebrate the grand opening, BayCoast Bank is having a "State Road Branch Sweepstakes." Individuals are welcome to stop in the new branch and enter to win an all-inclusive vacation for two at the Sugar Bay Resort & Spa in St. Thomas. Entries must be received at the new branch by March 31st. The Grand Opening also includes special offers for opening a new BayCoast checking account. As a thank you to the town for their cooperation during permitting and construction, BayCoast Bank donated $10,000 to the Dartmouth 350th Committee to help support anniversary events throughout 2014. The building was designed by Vision 3 Architects and built by R.P. Valois & Company, with landscaping by Stephanie Fuss Associates, LLC. The project was managed by PACE Project Management, Inc. Nicholas Christ, president and CEO of BayCoast Bank, said that the location, with 2 lanes and a drive-up Smart ATM, was planned to meet the needs of the residents and businesses in the area, as the bank continues to expand in the South Coast region. The new branch also offers ample parking and a coin counter for customers. "We are pleased to be able to further strengthen our presence in the region," said Christ. "Although it feels as if we were already an integral part of the Dartmouth community through our charitable giving and the exceptional service we provide to our customers in the area, we look forward to solidifying our place in the town at this new location."
